      We would like to know the exact accomodation where the group will be staying for the night? Also, is it possible to make our own lodging accomodations and will the price be adjusted accordingly? We are looking to stay at Hacienda San Augustine de Callo.

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten August 2024

      This activity is catered to everyone. We have put an age restriction on it because hiking at high altitudes may be challenging for some people who live at sea level. Nevertheless, since this is a group activity, our guide will wait for everyone.
